If you've got a Facebook profile, you may have come across a new, scary-sounding warning being shared by some of your friends.

Forwarded as received Don't accept Jayden K. Smith, she is a hacker and will get into all your friends accounts on your friends list and hack them also so if you get a friend request from her name delete! "Forwarded as received." A lot of people are listening and sending it off to everyone.

So of course those not in the know will share the message in the hopes of saving friends the stress of a hacking but the message is just a viral hoax. He is a hacker and has the system connected to your Facebook account.

No, someone named Jayden K Smith is not trying to hack into your Facebook account.

Of course my team mate Geraint Thomas as well, he crashed out today with a broken collarbone, so I've got mixed feelings. Geraint Thomas was sitting in a Sky team auto , his shoulder wrapped in gauze, wondering if his 2017 season is cursed.

Accepting someone as a Facebook friend won't compromise your account.

However, while Jayden K. Smith is NOT a hacker, he does exist. "Hit that then click on the names of those in your list and it will send to them".

There is no evidence that Smith is a real person.nor is he related to Will Smith.

People actually named Jayden K Smith may have been less than thrilled to find themselves starring in a hoax.

Meanwhile, folks on Twitter are having fun with the "Jayden K. Smith" madness, and joking about Jayden being one of the members of President Donald Trump's cyber security team. Such warnings were equally as spurious as their more recent Facebook counterparts.

In fact, there are several people out there bearing this name - and they are NOT happy about the public scrutiny, thank you very much.

Most users posting news about Jayden K. Smith on Facebook at this point are posting pleas for their Facebook friends to stop posting the fake warnings. "We have noticed some statements that suggest otherwise, and we wanted to take a moment to remind you of the facts: When you post things like photos to Facebook, we do not own them", Facebook spokesman Andrew Noyes said in a statement a year ago.
